Star Wars Jedi: Survivor has finally launched for consoles and PC, and gamers around the world are embarking on their second planet-hopping adventure in a galaxy far, far away. The open-world video game sequel sees the return of Cal Kestis, a Jedi Padawan introduced in 2019’s Jedi: Fallen Order.
Set five years after the first game, Jedi: Survivor follows Cal – now a powerful Jedi Knight – as he continues his crusade against the Empire. With his droid companion BD-1 in tow, Cal traverses the galaxy visiting planets both new and familiar.
On their travels, the duo come across a host of characters and enemies, from Jedi to Stormtrooper and Droid to Rancor. The game’s many species are brought to life by a group of voice and motion capture actors, many of whom reprise their roles from the first game.
